PaddyBricksplitter Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Hi all, With the end of the last season of Game of Thrones still floating round my head I decided to have a go at building a giant attacking a castle. Hope ya like it ;) Quote
Mr Greeble Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Very nicely built. Looks a bit like Clegane. Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Is he attacking Castle Light Bluish Bley? Quote
Suproc Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 This is awesome. I honestly haven't seen this idea done before and the intimidating scale shown looks really fierce. It reminds me a lot of Kologarn from World of Warcraft. Quote
dzidek1983 Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 That wizard is a joke... petrify him already fool.... Quote
ixypixy Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 So so awesome I was feeling so sad that GoT has finished again for another year but this put such a smile on my face. Quote
BrickJagger Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Nice! I like how you added some skulls to his necklace, it makes him seem more menacing. Quote
PaddyBricksplitter Posted July 8, 2016 Author Posted July 8, 2016 Very nicely built. Looks a bit like Clegane. Thanks. Well to be honest I had him in mind the entire time I was building the giant. Is he attacking Castle Light Bluish Bley? Its Castle Bleyskull :P This is awesome. I honestly haven't seen this idea done before and the intimidating scale shown looks really fierce. It reminds me a lot of Kologarn from World of Warcraft. Thanks. That wizard is a joke... petrify him already fool.... He's just turned up late. Give him a chance! So so awesome I was feeling so sad that GoT has finished again for another year but this put such a smile on my face. Yeah, me too. It was over too soon. Nice work with the giant! Cheers :D Nice! I like how you added some skulls to his necklace, it makes him seem more menacing. Thank ya kindly. I always look for a good excuse to all skulls or bones to any MOC. Quote
TheLegoDr Posted July 8, 2016 Posted July 8, 2016 Poor Wun Wun...although this giant is much larger and could do so much more damage. Yet, why do giants never have actual weapons? Just think of the possibilities! He looks very organic for brick built. I like how it blends together. Nice job on the addition of blood/wounds on the giant. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 Excellent giant (that head is a delight) and ballista! And as always full of action! What more to ask?! Quote

Giants don't carry weapons because they think it's cheating. Excellent giant (that head is a delight) and ballista! And as always full of action! What more to ask?! Thank you kindly, I really liked making that ballista too :) Love it! So imaginative. Cheers! Quote
BrickCurve Posted July 9, 2016 Posted July 9, 2016 Very well represented scene! Using the two different scales here works really well. I haven't seen that series or read the books so I can't judge the accuracy. Nevertheless, it is an excellent MOC! Quote
PaddyBricksplitter Posted July 10, 2016 Author Posted July 10, 2016 Frightening, quite frightening! He is no BFG thats for sure. Very well represented scene! Using the two different scales here works really well. I haven't seen that series or read the books so I can't judge the accuracy. Nevertheless, it is an excellent MOC! Well it's not really based on the show, just took the theme of a giant attacking a castle and went with it. Glad you like it though Quote
Brickadier General Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 You did an excellent job with the contours of the giants face. That was the first thing that jumped out right away. Great build overall! Quote
Cyberfounder Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 Awesome MOC, love your ballista and the attention to detail, like the blood running from hes wounds. Quote
BrickCurve Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 Well it's not really based on the show, just took the theme of a giant attacking a castle and went with it. Glad you like it though In my mind, that is always a better option than copying something like a book or movie outright, it allows you to be more creative. Quote
Regenerate builder Posted July 10, 2016 Posted July 10, 2016 Well done! The giant looks awesome! Quote
PaddyBricksplitter Posted July 11, 2016 Author Posted July 11, 2016 You did an excellent job with the contours of the giants face. That was the first thing that jumped out right away. Great build overall! Thanks my friend. I built the head first, once I managed that I knew I could do the rest. Awesome MOC, love your ballista and the attention to detail, like the blood running from hes wounds. Too kind sir. I never skimp on detail, that's my problem, sometimes I end up with too much going on. A bit like how a kid does a drawing of a battle. I can get carried away ;P In my mind, that is always a better option than copying something like a book or movie outright, it allows you to be more creative. And it's a little easier as no one knows how it's supposed to look.Hey, glad you like it. Nice cathedral mate. Quote
soccerkid6 Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Amazing brick-built giant! The armor on his forearms/hands looks perfect Great ballista too Quote
Kintobor Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Very nicely built. Looks a bit like Clegane. He's coming for the castle's chickens, obviously! Quote
PaddyBricksplitter Posted July 11, 2016 Author Posted July 11, 2016 Amazing brick-built giant! The armor on his forearms/hands looks perfect Great ballista too Thx man, hopefully just the right amount of spikes. He's coming for the castle's chickens, obviously! Argh, missed my chance to add a chicken on the ramparts. Quote
